Terry O'Reilly rates hospital ads

Canadian hospitals are increasingly relying on donor dollars to make up for government funding cuts. And from Ryan Reynolds’ lol-worthy “bratty kids” campaign for SickKids to UHN’s “number-two hospital in the world” humblebrag, they’re becoming ever more creative and canny about the art of the pitch. So who better to help us survey this hospital branding landscape than legendary ad man and host of CBC’s Under the Influence, Terry O’Reilly? This episode is the second of a two-part series on hospital ads. Check out the first one in our feed.

"We're number 2!" Why a Canadian hospital is boasting

Healthcare institutions rarely brag, but Toronto’s University Health Network is proudly advertising itself as the world’s #2 hospital and “Canada’s Hospital.” It reflects a broader push as hospitals increasingly rely on donor funding for staff, equipment, and infrastructure.

Episode 7: Dog Years

The animal world is full of age-related curiosities. Tiny aquatic creatures called hydras don’t age at all, while small dogs live twice as long as big ones. Pets may be the first to benefit from medicines that slow aging, which could pave the way for similar drugs for people.

What can a full-body MRI actually tell me about my health?

Some private clinics in Canada are offering whole-body MRIs that can run thousands of dollars. They claim these scans can detect a range of issues, and can find cancers in the early stages. Dr. Iain Kirkpatrick, the head of radiology at St. Boniface Hospital in Winnipeg, explains what a whole-body MRI can - and can’t - tell you about your health.

The demand for Canadian surrogates

Leanna Scott has always gone out of her way to help others — which is why she decided to become a surrogate. She carried a child for a couple from the Netherlands who chose Canada because of its altruistic surrogacy laws and strong health-care system. As demand grows, Canadian surrogates like Leanna are increasingly sought after by intended parents both here and abroad. Pamela White, a Canadian researcher who teaches law at the University of Kent, says it's time Canada has a discussion around its surrogacy laws.

ENCORE: Saving elderly patients from the hazards of the ER

It may seem counterintuitive, but hospital ERs can be risky for elderly patients, as the chaotic environment can quickly lead to delirium and decline. An innovative geriatric multidisciplinary ER team at St. Mary's Hospital in Montreal is getting elderly patients discharged safely and quickly, preventing harm and reducing hospital admissions.

Psilocybin is changing minds. Will it soon change the law?

“Pistol” Pete Pearson took ‘magic mushrooms’ illegally to ease his end-of-life distress, and is angry that Health Canada denied him access through the Special Access Program. Meanwhile, UHN psychiatrist and leading psilocybin researcher Dr. Joshua Rosenblat suggests its efficacy may stem from enhanced neuroplasticity—and it might be available by prescription sooner than later.

Pistol Pete's psilocybin trip

"Pistol" Pete Pearson underwent psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy to ease his end-of-life distress, and calls it a game-changer. Rather than cursing the things he can no longer do, he's grateful for the time he has left. Psilocybin is still illegal in Canada, but Health Canada has invested millions into research by UHN psychiatrist Dr. Joshua Rosenblat. He advises against using psilocybin illegally, like Pete did – but says legalization may be just around the corner.

What’s new in menopause treatments?

With more than 30 symptoms of menopause, it can be difficult to decide which treatments work best. Menopause specialist ob-gyn Dr. Kelsey Mills explains why hormone therapy is the gold standard, how new non-hormonal treatments are expanding options, and why symptom-based care—not hormone testing or “quick fixes”—is what really works.
